I have read people criticizing that the price does not really matter but i have seen that the cheaper coins have much more potential to move higher and faster in bull market than higher price tag coins, so adding some more quality cheap coins can really add on higher profits at the right time.
It's uncertain but I'll say that I'd be against with that statement. What's quicker to see an increase are those not cheap altcoins.
Bitcoin is not cheap and as we know, it's the most popular cryptocurrency and it is the safe haven in investing in cryptocurrencies.
Ethereum is around $377 as I post and that's not cheap but the 2nd most popular.
